I agree with JerzeeTomato...always add an egg (or two) when baking your stuffing.

Need NYC group restaurant recommendation!

We had my daughter's 21st birthday party at Primitivo Osteria. They have a smallish private room in the back. Food is great and prices are moderate. They have a prix fixe dinner in addition to the menu Sunday thru Thursday. We've been back with friends and family several times since. Donna

Red Beans and rice. No.... Crawfish Etouffee. Wait, wait, no... Jambalaya, made with crawdads, andouille or chaurice, chicken thighs, smoked pork, and gator!

Weekend Book Giveaway: The Oxford Companion to Italian Food

Listen Up my fellow Cooks/Contestants. Serious Eats say they reserve the right to alter any rules of any contest at any time. This means when the rule states S.Eats will pick the winner at random; anyone can make any kind of off the kitchen wall comment.It won't matter; it's a random pick. S.Eats should have the sources involved in the promotion take a peek at some of the clever answers that come across their world wide website.So all of you bright,intelligent,shrewd,quick,talented,expert,gifted and smart wordsmiths understand how the contest is played. Contact S.Eats at ATseriouseats.com and let"s alter the random pick rule. Happy Holiday and dried basil is my ingredient.

Pennyroyal is from the mint genus and has a very strong spearmint smell. Nepitella, by contrast, is like a minty oregano and tastes amazing with shrimp.

My favorite Italian ingredient is rosemary. I use it in almost every Italian dish I make - I even use the plant's thickest stalks as skewers for roasting shrimp, chicken, beef, and/or potatoes on the barbecue. Next to oregano (or nepitella when I can find it), rosemary is by far my favorite.
